I went through true results in houston but I have bcbs of illionois.. They will do all the research to confirm that you can have surgery there... If it's out of network then I think they just put you through their 'clinic' side for paperwork /approval purposes. Just be sure to bring this up at your next meeting. They are real good about making sure you're good to go.

Yup, agreed! I never had much luck, satisfaction, and comfort getting to that point until I was 100% comfortable doing it and figuring it out on my own. As for getting ther with, straight penetration, I, was only able to do it when I was alot thinner, and had less cushion down there (can't woot to get there again). I also agree with the above poster...go to or host a passion party!

Im 5'3, 201 (as of this morning thankyouverymuch) :-) , time to try on some 14s

I drink about 2xs per month and all is fine. I haven't noticed anything different on how fast it affects me.

You also probably signed something that said you understood that this was not garunteed weightloss

I went through true results a well with dr. Reilly. I agree that sometimes they seem a little disorganized sometimes, mostly not though, but i'm so glad I went through them rather than trying to do it all myself. You may have a small set back but your surgery will be here before, you know it. Please keep us updated! Sent from my HTC Glacier using LapBandTalk

In Heathers defense, I dont think she was trying to be insensitive or rude. Your doctor would probably say the same thing. I, too, was ttc for several years before I decided on the lapband and am counting down the days when my doc told me it was safe and reasonable to start ttc again. whatever you decide *baby dust* :-) Sent from my HTC Glacier using LapBandTalk

Im, not sure where you are in your journey but I go through periods, where I stall. I'm basically losing and gaining the same 3-5 pounds, for, several Weeks and, then bam, I start going down again. Keep it up and,I think it will eventually fall off.

I smoked on the way home from surgery and I healed fast and just fine.

I agree with the above poster. Id call them for sure.

I also add my vanilla Protein, to my coffee in the morning :-)

I use body fortess too and its the best one I've tried. Special k doesn't have enough protein, and is loaded with sugar. I also like the Aes advantage carb control shakes (premade). when I make my own shakes, i always add something to make it better. Green tea powder with vanilla and its like a green tea latte from Starbucks, and instant coffee to make it like a frap. Also you can addo fruits. Get creative and try.different things and its not so bad.

Can someone repost the group link for us? There's too many pages to sort through

Honk! I've recently discovered sweet mini peppers, too and love them! But, this may seem like a stupid question...but do you eat the seeds? Ive only cut them up and made sausage and peppers (chicken or turkey)...but I haven't tried them with hummus...that sounds yummy!

I use my fitness pal to plug in each ingredient and then divide, the servings

Today I had: Bfast, an egg white (3) omelet with 1Oz of ham and cheese, each. 147 cals and 31g protein. Lunch, 4Oz of grilled chicken with one packet of duck sauce (at work,.had to improvise) and some grilled zuchinni with lemon pepper seasoning. Snack, LF mozzarella string cheese

I'm not in San Antonio, but I went to True Results in Houston. They have been great with aftercare and my surgery was a breeze. Only took about 45 minutes. Congrats on your new journey. I hope you find some someone in your area.

Ive had vodka cranberry and its fine. Doesn't hit me Any faster than before. I also live my red wine

Girl, I don't know, I still don't know what is normal or not lol. Just listen to yor body. My doc said you should not have problems or discomfort with soft foods. But she also said that since I was OTR, that couldve been why I was so tight. I think she was.right BC now that i'm off I can eat easier again....does that make sense? I go back in 2 Weeks an will probably get the .5 cc put back in. im sorry i'm not much help, im pretty new at this. I would just call and.ask if its normal. Please keep us updated!

Yes, Every time I took a bite I would burp or hiccup like crazy.

I just went and got a slight unfill bc I was having problems with anything other than liquids. I kept thinking I was just swollen and it would eventually go down. Anytime I tried anything other than liquids, I would experience pain once it hit my pouch and on its way down and I was taking teeny tiny bites and chewing until it was basically disintegrated in my mouth and I would wait at least a minute between each bite. I finally called my doc to see if this was normal and they made me come in. Did a barium swallow and I was definitely too tight. She also said this could be due to my menstral cycle so I go back in two weeks and I may get the .5 put back in. So if you are concerned, call your doc. Hope that helps!

So....I was too tight. Did a barium swallow and you could see the itsy bitsy whole. They took .5 cc out. Hopefully that is the magic number!
